I can’t seem to find it. A reference would be awesome.



TIA



Take a look at 26.K.5.b.2:

A pilot's enhanced disability account will initially be zero. Following the completion of each sick leave year under Section 14, beginning with the sick leave year completed in 2017, a pilot who uses less than 80 sick leave credit hours in the sick leave year just completed will have credited to his enhanced disability account the number of hours equal to 50% of the difference between the number of sick leave credit hours he used and 80, e.g. a maximum credit of 40 hours with respect to any single, completed sick leave year.

I think that’s what you’re referring to?

PBS question:

I have to move sometime in February and will need 5 days to do it. Am I better off requesting a specific date range or just request 5 days off between trips?

There’s a line you can use to request any # of consecutive days off within a certain date range, say 5 consecutive days anywhere between Feb 14-28. I don’t remember seeing it until I did my December bid. Maybe request the specific days that you want first, followed by this option in case you didn’t get your first choice days.

That's going to be tons of fun to board and deplane.

They could board/deplane with 2 doors. Nah, that's mind-blowing technology. Better to do it the old fashioned way lol.

“No one has ever done that with 2 doors in the old days,” says this old guy who remembers it was the norm before jet bridges became common.:p

The A380s load and unload with 2 jet bridges (one for each level). The Q400s use 2 stairs at most outstations that have no jet bridges.;)
